I love the feeling of one minute after arriving in NYC, looking around and thinking, “Yeah, this is the city where things happen.” Almost wish I was in my 20s again so I could experience it with the anything is possible perspective of a full life ahead. Although at 50, I’m still quite the optimist.

@manton my daughter is in her 20s and lived there for 4 years and was glad to leave. do with that what you will ;)

@manton And… You nailed why I envy Beatrix so much.

@manton Same, Manton. I’m heading into the city this weekend and I love that feeling every time.

@manton While walking in a cool part of Washington, D.C., a few years back, I noticed how the young people had a certain spring in their step. I said to myself, “ I used to have that.”

@jasonkratz I think that must be the flip side of it too. Gotta have balance and a break from the constant everything in motion.

@acfusco Definitely a similar vibe in DC.

@manton yeah I kinda see it as a neat place to visit once in awhile. The couple of times I was there the population density would have been too much on a daily basis. FWIW my kid now lives in Chicago (city itself) and loves it but Chicago is nowhere near the density of NYC. I’d love to get back to downtown again but again, Chicago isn’t NYC haha.

@manton oh…and if you’ve got time head to Bubby’s in Tribeca. The food is amazing. Its also close to Ghostbusters HQ ;)
